Review of the GoSkippy, Car insurance:

WORST INSURANCE COMPANY EVER! DO NOT USE!

1
I am being chased from a debt collection agency on behalf of Go Skippy of a sum £216.16 when I cancelled my policy with them last year. They falsely advised me when I had my Insurance out with them! I was involved in an accident where the 3rd party insurer went in the back of me! The 3rd party insurer and his insurance company admitted full liability to me on the phone and also spoken with my insurance company Go Skippy at the time and informed them the same. (easy claim, yes?, NO!) Well as the claim was proceeding Go Skippy said to me that they 3rd party insurer didn't admitted full liability and that they never did, they never advised me that they did either. So I was basically lying according to them. So anyway they closed down my claim and told me that there is nothing else they can do as I was 3rd Party Fire Theft and to seek a no sale no fee solicitor. Had I have been completely naive and took their word for it, then I would have lost alot of money. But instead I called the 3rd party insurer and a company called Enterprise who were helping with the claim and got the case reopened and the 3rd party insurer paid it to me direct. Not even such much as an apology for how they have treated me throughout this whole ordeal. And if that wasn't enough they are chasing me for debt that I don't owe them. I'm still trying to sort this out and have been on the phone to them for the past 1H 30Mins and still no resolution yet. STAY WELL CLEAR OF THE INSURANCE COMPANY! Reviewed on: 9th March 2018

I sold my old car and goskippy don't want to insure my new car which is toyota rav4 and said it is a high risk. People insure their belongings because of the risk that something might happen someday. these people want the insurance money and dont want the risk. I guess it is better to avoid goskippy insurance.

Avoid this shambles

Absolute joke of an organisation, renewal quote almost £200 higher than last year. Also almost £200 higher than they quoted as a new customer, attempted to get this sorted over the phone and frankly haven't heard anyone less interested in maintaining custom. Thought I'd email, stated same however I can check if eligible for a discount, call again. No not eligible, still not interested in matching their own quotation. I cannot imagine how bad the service would be if you legitimately needed them, I'll be paying more for an actual insurance organisation not this joke. Reviewed on: 18th March 2025

I recently had a frustrating experience with this insurance provider that I feel compelled to share. I attempted to change my car on my existing policy, but they outright refused to insure the new vehicle. Consequently, I had no choice but to cancel my policy, which resulted in an unexpected cancellation fee of £100 along with additional charges, leading to a total loss of £180 in just one month. Moreover, their policy dictates that refunds are processed only after a 28-day waiting period post-cancellation, which means they are holding onto my money for no valid reason. This lack of accountability is incredibly disappointing. Additionally, I found the customer service to be far from satisfactory. The representative I spoke with was not only unhelpful but also quite rude, which only compounded my frustration. Overall, I strongly advise against using this insurance company. The lack of support, unreasonable fees, and poor customer service make it a choice I deeply regret. Save yourself the hassle and look elsewhere for your insurance needs. Reviewed on: 13th March 2025

Awful customer care and extortionate prices.

Awful customer care and extortionate prices. Avoid at all costs trustpilot and their own website rate them at four out of five. Do not take this as genuine, condescending customer care assistant and poor supervisor. Reviewed on: 30th January 2025

AVOID AT ALL COSTS

Please whatever you do do not use this insurance company. An amount was agreed through Vizion (The broker) Who told go Skippy the wrong amount, once I confirmed this with Vizion who admitted they were at fault they and I sent multiple emails to Go Skippy that were completely ignored. We are missing around £2000 and Go Skippy just pass you round different departments and wont actually confirm sending us the excess money. They are complete scammers. PLEASE AVOID Reviewed on: 27th January 2025
